About this combo

Built specifically for casting stickbaits and poppers at large pelagics, this combo pairs the Ripple Fisher RunnerExceed 104H with the Shimano 21 Twin Power SW 14000XG and Varivas Casting PE Max Power X8 Braid. Every component is chosen to handle the explosive runs of kingfish and tuna in open water.

Rod: Ripple Fisher - RunnerExceed 104H Plug Topwater Rod

The RunnerExceed 104H is a purpose-built topwater plug rod designed for walking stickbaits and popping over long casts. At 10'4" with a heavy power rating, it generates the tip action needed to work surface lures effectively while carrying the backbone to turn hard-running pelagics. Ripple Fisher's blank construction delivers sensitivity without sacrificing the lifting power you need when it counts.

Reel: Shimano - 21 TWIN POWER SW 14000XG

The 21 Twin Power SW 14000XG is Shimano's battle-proven saltwater workhorse, built with a rigid Hagane body and cold-forged Hagane gear for sustained power under load. The XG retrieve ratio delivers fast line recovery to stay tight on charging pelagics. Its cross carbon drag system provides smooth, reliable stopping power across the full drag range — critical when a large kingfish or tuna makes its first run.

Line: Varivas - Casting PE Max Power X8 Braid

Varivas Casting PE Max Power X8 is an 8-carrier braid engineered specifically for overhead casting applications, delivering exceptional casting distance with reduced wind knots. Its high-density weave maintains round, consistent diameter for smooth guide travel, while the PE construction offers the near-zero stretch needed to drive hook sets at range. A strong choice for demanding topwater work on large pelagics.

Together, these three components form a cohesive, high-performance topwater system ready for serious offshore and inshore pelagic fishing. If you're targeting kingfish and tuna on surface lures, this combo is built for the task — shop it today.
